Since the pandemic, workers, teachers and students have faced countless adjustments and the gradual return to face-to-face activities. In order to investigate deeply about the experiences of the return to face-to-face classes, we have recovered 60 narrations of students from two public universities in México who elucidate the complexity and effects on modes of subjectivation. The material obtained has been systematized through grounded theory and the analysis was contrasted from the theory of deleuzian affections, as well as theoretical approaches that problematize socialization and sociality in face-to-face classes, its effect on learning processes and the role of the university institution and the school device. The results are presented in four central categories: impressions and opinions about the return to face-to-face classes; the affections and sensations caused by the pandemic and the face-to-face return; the virtual and face-to-face classes; and the hybrid model.
